1. If you can't resize the window with the sizing gadget I don't know this
answere.
2. Define null ("") menues ie. MENUE 3,0,0,"" and then put another one in
the 4th position and this will cover the default menues. I found this out in
a microsoft basic book for the mac, since they are similar you can get some
good info from these.
1. The sizing gadget works but I was hoping for a command I could execute
from my startup-sequence. Oh well…
2. I think got a crash, complete with guru when I tried null strings but I'll
try it again, maybe I was doing something else wrong.
Aha, from Startup-sequence — try this. Go through the startup-sequence
initialization, and include the lines
newcli
endcli
This will open CLI 2, then terminate CLI 1. You _can_ change the default size
of NewCLI windows, if you have FileZap (DL2 "fileza.exe"), or equivalent. The
area starting at 04B9 is a CON:xx/yy/XX/YY statement, in ascii format. You can
change this to make CLIs opened with NewCLI to be wherever you want. Could
also "copy newcli to startingcli" to leave the default sizing alone, and run a
modified "startingcli" in your startup-sequence.

Matt, I checked my code where I have used a "" menu string, I needed to fill
in the fourth position. I used: MENU 4,0,0,"" and it works just fine. I
guess you should make sure that the menu-id is 3 and 4 in your case (needing
to fill two places) and that the item-id and state is 0 for both. If this
doesn't work i'm baffled—which has happened to me more than once on my new
machine. Good luck.
James, I got it working now, thanks. The problem was that I failed to
disable the selection i.e. MENU 4,0,1,"" Message 13072 explains why that
caused a crash (Well, it doesn't really explain but it does show that I'm not
the only one to "See the guru" this way.) -Matt
